So ...the one at the 1 o-clock position is the switched power ??
Looking to the rear for the trailer plug ~ the pins are reversed - and the simple way to keep it straight is to think in terms of "PASSENGER SIDE" and DRIVER SIDE"
The passenger is like a bad SPOUSE:
POWER
TO
BREAK
(you)
(12 volt power, Turn and brake light-right side, BRAKE SIGNAL to electric brakes)

Yes one of the pins has power to it whenever the key is on.

MY bad....the wire in my harness...there is no JUST black one it has what looks like a white stripe and the wire does not look black it is by far the darkest color...my eyes have a bit of an issue seeing the color......now my 2005 has the Tow Boss on it ...does that make a difference ?
I am trying to find switched power for the Pacific Dualies 80006 Tire Pressure Monitoring system....my transmitter is mounted on the DS by the spare..
